Anyway, the four of them are going to dinner tonight for his birthday.
My daughter also spends a great deal of time with her husband's family. Since I was IP in 2018 she has barely communicated with me - even though we were very close before that.
I have a serious mental illness, so does my husband. We are poor, especially by California standards. I know the kids love us very much...but we're not...typical. So we rarely see them. We're always last on the list. It hurts like hell.

Big hugs Beth. I hope they come around one day. Life's just too short and you have so much to offer.
